2011 First Quarter Highlights:
-- First quarter bookings of $13.1 million increased 13% compared with
fourth quarter bookings of $11.7 million, fueled by strong
contributions from all product segments.
-- First quarter net revenues of $11.7 million increased 23% compared with
first quarter 2010 net revenues of $9.5 million and 16% over fourth
quarter 2010 net revenues of $10.1 million.
-- First quarter net earnings of $1.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share
increased over first quarter 2010 net earnings of $1.1 million, or $0.11
per diluted share and decreased compared with fourth quarter 2010 net
earnings of $1.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share. First quarter net
earnings reflects the effect of approximately $250,000 in costs related
to the first quarter relocation of both the Company's corporate
headquarters and the operations of Temptronic Corporation. These costs
were higher than the earlier estimated costs of approximately $155,000,
due to inclement weather and other higher than expected move related
costs.
2011 First Quarter Business Highlights:
-- inTEST relocated the Company's corporate headquarters and Temptronic
Corporation's operations to state-of-the-art facilities. The Company
expects that reduced operating costs will result in annual savings of
approximately $0.05 in earnings per share in future periods.
-- In order to provide a more focused thermal solution for its customers,
two of the Company's Sharon, MA-based subsidiaries, Temptronic and Sigma
Systems, began operating under the umbrella trade name, inTEST Thermal
Solutions Corp., further broadening the marketing range and engineering
capabilities of the two separate entities. In addition to semiconductor
testing, the Thermal division product line addresses a number of high
growth markets, including High-Speed Networking and the use of Fiber
Optic components and devices for 4G and 10G communications, Broadband
TV satellites, and Military applications.

inTEST President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert E. Matthiessen,
commented, "Our results for the first quarter reflect the strength of our
diversified product portfolio, which addresses growth markets in both the
semiconductor and non-semiconductor areas, including aerospace, defense,
automotive, telecommunications and medical pharmaceutical. We reported our
second consecutive quarter of bookings growth, with solid contributions
across all of our product groups, and revenue for the quarter increased
both sequentially and on a year-over-year basis." Mr. Matthiessen
concluded, "Our customers continue to increase their overall test capacity
as they seek to meet end market demand for a broad range of products.
Accordingly, we believe the growth prospects for inTEST Corporation remain
positive."

Second Quarter 2011 Financial Outlook:

The Company expects that net revenue for the second quarter ended June 30,
2011 will be in the range of $12.5 to $13.5 million and that net earnings
will be in the range of $0.15 to $0.20 per diluted share. The second
quarter outlook is based on the Company's current views with respect to
operating and market conditions and customers' forecasts, which are subject
to change.
